Date Sold 11/6/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1951 Re-Release Theatrical Folded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Werewolf of London, the 1935 Stuart Walker England monster horror thriller ("Beware! Terror strikes in the night"; "Murder in the moonlight! Terror stalks! An unseen hand strikes!"; "Beware the wicked hour and the stalking being!"; "Beware the stalking being, half human, half beast!") starring Henry Hull (in the title role as the werewolf), Warner Oland (best remembered as Charlie Chan in the 20th Century Fox series), Valerie Hobson, Lester Matthews, Clark Williams, Spring Byington, Lawrence Grant, and J.M. Kerrigan. Note that this is the "forgotten" Universal horror movie of the 1930s, because Universal abandoned this portrayal of the werewolf, and created an entirely different wolf-man in 1941 with Lon Chaney Jr. in very different makeup from that which Henry Hull wore in this movie. But this was Universal's very first werewolf movie! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have only auctioned two in all our years of auctioning, and the last was in 2012, and it sold for $675! Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The right and left blank borders of the poster were folded back at one time (just barely extending into the image area) and there are some pairs of staple holes in portions of the blank borders with just a few near center left and right slightly extending into the poster's image (one tiny hole is just to the lower left of the werewolf's face at lower left - see our image). There are some partial horizontal creases at upper right that extend into the image of Hull's forehead and hair and there is light fold wear. Overall, the majority of the few defects affect the edges of the poster and after a relatively simple paperbacking the ultra-rare half-sheet would certainly look fantastic!
